Galaxy adds veteran GK Cudicini

Carson, CA (Sports Network) - The Los Angeles Galaxy announced on Monday that
the club has signed goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini on a free transfer from
Tottenham.

The 39-year-old has spent more than a decade in the Premier League with Chelsea and Tottenham, while he also has experience playing in Serie A with AC Milan and Lazio.

"We are delighted to be able to add Carlo Cudicini to our roster," Galaxy head
coach and general manager Bruce Arena said. "Carlo is an experienced and
accomplished goalkeeper who we believe will be a great addition to our team
and our defensive unit."

Cudicini made 216 appearances during his time with Chelsea, helping the club
win two Premier League titles, two FA Cups and a pair of League Cups.

After joining Tottenham in January 2009, Cudicini served primarily as a backup
and appeared in five of Tottenham's Europa League games as well as six FA Cup
matches for Spurs last season.
